Analysis and Mathematical Physics

A large toolbox of numerical schemes for dispersive equations has been established, based on different discretization techniques such as discretizing the variation-of-constants formula (e.g., exponential integrators) or splitting the full equation...

Blume-Capel and the Tricritical Point

Trishen Gunaratnam

This talk will be about a ferromagnetic spin system called the Blume-Capel model. It was introduced in the '60s to model an exotic multi-critical phase transition observed in the magnetisation of uranium oxide. Mathematically speaking, the model can...
